I've been setting my torch tip distance wrong for ten years and only found out when a weld failed inspection in Toledo.

Ten years is a long time to be doing it wrong without knowing...

Man, that's rough. I've been there with bad habits you don't even know you have. It's crazy how one little thing like tip distance can mess up a weld for that long without anyone catching it.

My old shop foreman would spot a bad tip distance from across the bay. Some things you just learn to see.
